Guitar through the Ages

Where does the guitar we know and love come from? Unlike the piano and violin, it’s been around in different shapes and sizes, belonging equally to wandering folk musicians and to formal classical concert halls.

The guitar grew up in the courts of Europe, lived through the Rennaisance and Industrial ages, and finally came into its own in the mid 1800s.
